2 Chronicles 17
1 And Iehosphat his sonne reigned in his steade, and preuailed against Israel.
アサの子ヨシヤパテ、アサに代りて王となりイスラエルにむかひて力を強くし
2 And he put garisons in all the strong cities of Iudah, and set bandes in the lande of Iudah and in the cities of Ephraim, which Asa his father had taken.
ユダの一切の堅固なる邑々に兵を置きユダの地およびその父アサが取たるエフライムの邑々に鎮臺を置く
3 And the Lord was with Iehoshaphat, because he walked in the first wayes of his father Dauid, and sought not Baalim,
ヱホバ、ヨシヤパテとともに在せり其は彼その父ダビデの最初の道に歩みてバアル等を求めず
4 But sought the Lord God of his father, and walked in his commandements, and not after the trade of Israel.
その父の神を求めてその誡命に歩みイスラエルの行爲に傚はざればなり
5 Therefore the Lord stablished the kingdome in his hande, and all Iudah brought presents to Iehoshaphat, so that he had of riches and honour in abundance.
このゆゑにヱホバ國を彼の手に堅く立たまへりまたユダの人衆みなヨシヤパテに禮物を餽れり彼は富と貴とを極めたり
6 And he lift vp his heart vnto the wayes of the Lord, and he tooke away moreouer the hie places and the groues out of Iudah.
是において彼ヱホバの道にその心を勵まし遂に崇邱とアシラ像とをユダより除けり
7 And in the thirde yere of his reigne he sent his princes, Ben-hail, and Obadiah, and Zechariah, and Nethaneel, and Michaiah, that they should teach in the cities of Iudah,
彼またその治世の三年にその牧伯ベネハイル、オバデヤ、ゼカリヤ、ネタンエルおよびミカヤを遣はしてユダの邑々にて敎誨をなさしめ
8 And with them Leuites, Shemaiah, and Nethaniah, and Zebadiah, and Asahel, and Shemiramoth, and Iehonathan, and Adoniiah, and Tobiiah, and Tob-adoniiah, Leuites, and with the Elishama and Iehoram Priestes.
またレビ人の中よりシマヤ、ネタニヤ、ゼバデヤ、アサヘル、セミラモテ、ヨナタン、アドニヤ、トビヤ、トバドニヤなどいふレビ人を遣して之と偕ならしめ且祭司エリシヤマとヨラムをも之と偕に遣はしけるが
9 And they taught in Iudah, and had the booke of the Lawe of the Lord with them, and went about throughout all the cities of Iudah, and taught the people.
彼らはヱホバの律法の書を携ヘユダにおいて敎誨をなしユダの邑々を盡く行めぐりて民を敎へたり。
10 And the feare of the Lord fell vpon all the kingdomes of ye lands that were round about Iudah, and they fought not against Iehoshaphat.
是においてユダの周圍の地の國々みなヱホバを懼れてヨシヤパテを攻ることをせざりき
11 Also some of the Philistims brought Iehoshaphat giftes and tribute siluer, and the Arabians brought him flockes, seuen thousande and seuen hundreth rammes, and seuen thousande and seuen hundreth hee goates.
またペリシテ人の中に禮物および貢の銀をヨシヤパテに餽れる者あり且又アラビヤ人は家畜をこれに餽れり即ち牡羊七千七百牡山羊七千七百
12 So Iehoshaphat prospered and grewe vp on hie: and he built in Iudah palaces and cities of store.
ヨシヤパテは益々大になりゆきてユダに城および府庫邑を多く建て
13 And he had great workes in the cities of Iudah, and men of warre, and valiant men in Ierusalem.
ユダの邑々に多くの工事を爲し大勇士たる軍人をヱルサレムに置り
14 And these are the nombers of them after the house of their fathers, In Iudah were captaines of thousands, Adnah the captaine, and with him of valiant men three hundreth thousande.
彼等を數ふるにその宗家に循へば左のごとしユダより出たる千人の長の中にはアデナといふ軍長あり大勇士三十萬これに從がふ
15 And at his hande Iehohanan a captaine, and with him two hundreth and fourescore thousande.
その次は軍長ヨハナン之に從ふ者は二十八萬人
